How I Was Dumped Even at Birth

Look, I said I'd post on Tuesday, and here it is! Feel lucky-I have a huggeee biology test to study for. Or maybe I'm just a procrastinator

So, let's start from my birth: actually, I don't know much about my birth. I think I was born in Seoul (the capital of South Korea, for you geographically challenged people) but I'm not actually positive. Background info: both of my parents worked in the army; my father as some kind of computer tech person and my mom as an army nurse. Later, she started a school and became headmaster after receiving a First rank star or something, which was a VERY BIG DEAL. Like, calling us every day and saying "Have you heard..?" for  a week and months after.

Anyways, they already had two daughters (my oldest sister-25, older-22) who were middle schoolers when I was born. Neither wanted to quit their job or take a break to raise me, so they carted me off to my grandparents. Therefore, I spent the wee first five years of my life in a farm. A literal farm. We had a cow and grew lettuce, cabbages, peppers, etc. And yes, we had an outdoor toilet. More about that later.

Oh yes, I lived as an only child, coddled by my grandparents. It was pretty awesome. I had quite a few adventures as a toddler, from yelling at my alcoholic grandfather to running away from home, which you will here about on...Friday (hey, remember the bio test? ALL-NIGHTER). Visit Friday for "The Adventures of Huckleberry Jean"! (Does the allusion work? Is it funny? I feel like I just seem really lame...)

Random gif/meme/awesome pic time!!!


Don't we all just wish we can do this instead of studying or working? Heck yeah, I need a phone like this.


*Anyways, I decided also post things happening in my life right now, to keep y'all posted on my current status. This week: my school is having a dodgeball tournament that I'm reffing. Dodgeball tournament? Yeah, I told you my school was weird. We even have cricket in place of football.

The First Post! (And the Dreaded Self-Introduction)

Welcome, to the "Secret Life of an Asian Teenager"!

Now, this is the first post, and I feel like I'm supposed to make a very dramatic intro here that will grab all of your attention

Unfortunately, I have no such "dramatic intro", but I will make a self-introduction here to interest all of you lovely people reading this.

Hello! My name is Jean (as you can probably tell by the profile), and I've pondered long and hard about what to reveal about myself

What I will tell you: my age (15, freshman in high school), my race (Korean, South of course), and my family (We will go into this in later posts)

What I will not: my last name (you may find out later anyways though), the name of my school (but I will give a LOT of descriptions about it), and real names of friends and family (protection...for them and for me, in case they find this and kill me)

This blog is basically to document my life, a psychotic whirlwind of craziness and...chaos (exaggeration much?). No, I'm going to reveal to you my life story, a story that will shock and entrance you. This ain't going to be some teenager ranting about her friends and her parents. No, this is a real story about an Asian girl with secrets, with problems that you may be able to relate to (or not, cuz mine are kinda special :P). Now, this is getting really long, so I'll end soon.

The Next Post: "How I was Dumped even at Birth", coming either Monday or Tuesday! (A high school girl has homework to do. A LOT OF HOMEWORK)

Random gif/meme/awesome picture time!!!


What an old meme! Still love it though
